How : retainer Grows.

IN the skin Of fowl, where feather Is
to appear, there is to be seen q little pit,
and at the bottom of this rises tiny
mound or pyramid Around this pyramid
certain little grooves extend deeper at the
base, seeming to radiate from one large
groove at one side, all growing shallower,
and finally disappearing at the top. This
whole pyramid Is covered with skin
composed Of the same series, or fiattened
cells, as those which cover the whole body.
In the ordinary process Of growth the
new formations on the surface of the body
throw of as effete matter the older por-
tions Of the skin, but here they are re-
tanned, and become so closely united to
each other as to form sort of honey coat,
more or less strong according to its age,
over the surface of the pyramid. As new
cells grow at the base they push up this
little horny protuberance till it breaks at
its thinnest point, which Is opposite the
large groove. Then, as new growths still
push 1t onward and fiatten it, it assumes
the form Of q feather, the ridge In the
main furrow or groove being the shaft,
while the side grooves form the separate
barbs of the vein.
When all this web of the feather is
formed the pyramid loses its grooves and
becomes smooth. All parts are of equal
thickness, and so hard as to break easily,
but remain tubular and form the quill,
which is attached to what remains to the
pyramid. The finger nails, and even
single hairs, are developed and formed In
the same way, and every one who has in
iured nail and lost it knows how long a
process some three or four months, Is re-
quired to produce the missing finish to
his digit. Poultry Mascot.

At tho Tomb Of Grant.

Grants tomb few days since, and was
attracted as drew near it to the horse

young men and women standing at the
open portals of the vault. / left my car
rage and walked the little distance from
the driveway to the tomb, and just as
reached it one of the boys, looking in,
initiated the shrill, loud too-whit too-hoo
of the owl, and as the echo rolled about
the iron box in which the embalmed and
enameled clay rests the crowd laughed
and repeated it. There in full public gaze,
the wind blowing the reckless dust and
scattering leaves in upon it, stands the
iron box So far as it is concerned it might
as well stand in the City Hall park or in
the midst OF Broadway's tumultuous

for the dust, affection for the one father,

Is there no sanctity about our deadi
